Buy a pregnancy test asap. It is not allowed to take methotrexate by any partner and get pregnant. If your man is taking such drugs, you must use a proper birth control to not get pregnant. Methotrexate can severele damage the fetus and its development.

After your partner stops taking the drug, you should wait at least 3 months before being allowed to conceive.
